International Giveaway! Barre3's 'Total Body Lift Workout' DVD

I shared with my readers a few months ago that I've been doing Sadie Lincoln's Barre3 'Total Body Lift Workout' DVD once a week at home since September after learning Madonna was a fan.You can read more about that here. It totally kicked my ass at first but now I can do all the moves without grunting because I'm getting so much stronger. I absolutely love this workout which incorporates Ballet, Yoga and Pilates to "develop the length of a dancer and the strength of an athlete." This method is toning my entire body and exercising and carving muscles I didn't even know I had! I was so thrilled when I found out the kind souls at Barre3 wanted to sponsor a giveaway on my blog and gift one lucky reader with a copy of their 'Total Body Lift Workout' DVD and a fitball and even more excited when they told me they'd ship it anywhere in the world!

To enter you must be a subscribed follower of Marie a la Mode via google or Bloglovin' and must leave a comment with your contact info if you don't have a blog I can reach you at. That's it! One entry per person please. The winner will be announced a week from today. Good luck!

Just Johnny ...

The source of genius

is imagination alone,

the refinement of the senses





that sees what others do not see,

or sees them differently.

to be truthful is easy;



only the artist, the great artist,



knows how difficult it is.

To create one's own world

Good Luck or Good Karma? (Please Don't Hate Me!)

Thank you Lah Tea Dah (Joe Fresh necklace and Boston Tea Party gift card)

Thanks Pop Champagne

Thank you A Pretty Penny

Thank You BonBon Rose Girls (Wendy Mink Jewelry)

 Thanks Lilac and Grey, (heart card) Required 2 B Inspired (D.I.Y. shirt) and O My Heart  (gift card)

And Thank You Makeup Nonsense !

These are all prizes I've won from amazing Blog Giveaways over the past six months or so. I've wanted to do a Thank You post for a long time and here it is finally. Now I know what you're thinking: "She won all of THAT?! Not fair!" Honestly I couldn't believe how many giveaways I won, every time I saw "And the winner is....Marie a la Mode!" in a blog post over and over again my jaw would drop open and I would check to see if I was sitting on a horse shoe!

I think I inherited my luck from my mom's side of the family, they seem to win money quite often whenever one of them hits the casino or plays Bingo. One of my Aunts actually won $180 grand on a nickel slot machine! My Mother has won three tropical vacations in her lifetime (one to the Bahamas and two to Mexico), a diamond ring and a bike from Tim Horton's "Roll Up the Rim to Win" contest. She was constantly winning money, movie passes and concert tickets through radio contests when I was growing up and I must take after her because that's how I won tickets to Lady Gaga  last summer, not to mention numerous movie passes, concert tickets, pizza parties and CD's over the years. I know, you HATE me! It's okay, I understand!

It's not always about luck though, it's about persistence and determination and sometimes involves creativity on my part which is how I won the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Hair Straightener from Pop Champagne's blog. And sometimes it even involves talent, like the time I called into a radio station (twenty times before getting through) and tap danced while my mom sang "We're in the money" and held the phone up to my feet. (We scored 'Lord of the Dance' tickets for that one.) Anyways, 2010 was my luckiest year yet, as you can see.  I have to admit I feel a bit guilty for winning all of this even though I've given away some amazing prizes myself, so for the next few months I'm going to refrain from entering blog giveaways to give someone else a chance. Something else I'm going to do is post a giveaway of my own that I'm really excited about. So make sure you come back in a couple of days to enter! Do you still hate me? What if I told you that I think my luck may be running out because in the past ten days I got a flat tire in -30 degree weather, got my car stuck in the deep, deep snow six times (the last time was a couple of days ago when a truck had to hook a chain to my car and pull me out) and burnt my ear using the same hair straightener I won??? ; )

I hope you're having a great week. We're halfway to the weekend!

From Johnny's website.
Well. I hardly know where to begin.

So yesterday we had a lot of picspam to roll around in/on to help ease our minds after the bizarre Case of the Disappearing Johnny-Love Posts and Photos from the USFS Facebook Page, in which we posted many polite requests to USFS asking them to invite Johnny to skate in the exhibition this coming Sunday after he receives his Readers'

Match Pink

coat - Winners    jeggings - H & M    beanie - Zara     boots - American Eagle, Payless Shoes   purse - Miche

Why do weekends have to go by so fast? A permanent three or four day weekend would suit me just fine, how about you? ; ) This is what I wore Saturday night to go to my Dad's Birthday dinner at my parents' house where we brought out Michael Jackson The Experience on the Wii which is the best thing since online shopping. We only had one controller but that didn't stop us from all dancing to "Billie Jean" and "Bad" at the same time. If you ever get a chance to try it, do it! It's so much fun and a great workout.

I got this coat from Winners a couple of years ago and it's still in great shape. It's quite warm too, which is a must when you live where I do. See how much snow we still have? Last week my car got stuck in the same alley I'm standing in in the last pic. I had to leave it there, blocking traffic with my blinkers on until D. got home from work to push me out. Our streets are still not cleared and I've gotten stuck six times in as many days. Grrrrrr. I'm crossing my fingers the snow plow's will be heading to my neighborhood a.s.a.p.!

Have a great week!

Jesse James and Kat Von D are Engaged

From People.com I quote Jesse James: "2010 was actually the best year of my life because I fell in love with my best friend." 2010 was the best year of your life? You cheated on your then-wife, the beautiful and talented Sandra Bullock with THIS:

You blew the chance at being a loving Father to this adorable baby boy, got a divorce and became the most-hated celebrity man-whore besides Tiger Woods. If 2010 was the best year of his life then the 3 month-long gooey staph infection I caught after I had my gallbladder removed was an absolute BLAST. But, hey - to each their own!

Good Luck, Guys!

Celebrity Look-A-Likes

Michelle Williams and Carey Mulligan

Britney Spears and Courtney Love

 Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel

  Ashlee Simpson and Samantha Ronson

 Maria Menounos and Michelle, that crazy chick from this season's "The Bachelor"

I thought it would be fun to do a post on celebrities who I think look like each other. Do you agree with my picks? I can't get over how much Katy and Zooey resemble one another, it's uncanny! Do you have a celebrity twin? People have told me over the years that I look like the French actress Julie Delpy:

Me and Julie

I don't really see it except for maybe the eyes. I certainly wish it was me and not her who co-starred with Ethan Hawke in "Before Sunrise."  ; )  Before the cheating-on-Uma-Thurman-with-his-Nanny scandal of course.

All comparisons put together by me via google images. Pic of Michelle from starcasm.net

Post-Christmas Christmas Party

dress - Banana Republic Outlet    shoes - Aldo    tights - Walmart   necklace - random    ring - F21     bracelet -H&M 

This past weekend D. and I went to my work's Christmas Party which we have in January. (Don't ask lol.) We both had a great time. I feel extremely lucky to work with such fun and cool people. There was a delicious buffet dinner, a dance accompanied by a DJ and ridiculous and embarrassing games to play for prizes. Although I didn't win the big screen T.V. I did leave the party with a couple of fold-up ottoman's and a travel mug thanks to my ping-pong balancing abilities ; ). This dress is another Boxing Week purchase I picked up at the Banana Republic outlet for $26.00, saving about $50 off the regular price. I really hate taking outfit pictures inside but it was -30 C outside with three feet of snow and I'm not that brave. I'm actually getting really tired of all the snow that has fallen upon us, there's just so much of it. My car got stuck twice yesterday, thank goodness for my boyfriend, friendly neighbors and friends for bailing me out. (Yes, it took that many people!) Winter, I'm so done with you.

I hope you all have a great week!

Walking On Lipstick?

via luxist

Italian Designer Alberto Guardiani has designed a pump that includes two things I absolutely love: shoes and lipstick. I could totally see Lady Gaga wearing these but I would have major trouble walking in them. And forking out $400.00 to buy them! What do you think? Would you wear them?

My Life:

So earlier this week I posted about all the snow and freezing cold weather we've been having. Well on Wednesday, on my lunch break, I was driving and got a flat tire. I had been driving on it for about three minutes before I realized it. The bad news is that it was about -32 C with the wind chill and I GOT A FLAT TIRE. It was totally destroyed, I was burning rubber and thought for sure I damaged the rim. The good news is that it happened one block away from where I get my tires from so I drove there (let me tell you it was a very bumpy ride) and the guys put on a new tire for me in thirty minutes! And my rim was fine. I felt extremely lucky.

I wanted to share this photo with you. We have a fireplace (which we've been using every night this week) and Kitty loves to lay in front of it in her basket and sleep. I thought it was so cute I just had to post it. Do I post too many pics of my cat? Am I turning into a crazy cat lady? I hope not! Let me know in the comments ; )

Have a great weekend and if you're experiencing ridiculous temperatures like I am STAY WARM!

An Amazing Deal!

via Nouveau Cheap

When I spied these gorgeous 8-pan color eye shadow palettes from Wet 'n Wild's 2011 collection on one of my favorite blogs, Nouveau Cheap I almost jumped out of my chair and knew I just had to share these with my American readers. I'm a big fan of Wet 'n Wild's Color 6-pan Color Icon palettes and I'm confident these new 8-pan shadows won't disappoint. How amazing are these colors??? And guess what? The price tag will make you love them even more: $4.99 USD at Walgreens or Walmart starting mid-January which is just a few days away. Unfortunately they won't be available for the first part of the year in Canada but that may change. Click here for more info.

White Out

 Hat - Steve Madden (from Winners)   coat - Garage Clothing   top - H & M   necklace - F21

A cold and nasty winter storm hit our city last Friday (the worst in ten years!) and since then more than 1.5 feet of snow has fallen, making it very difficult to drive on the icy, slippery and unplowed side roads. Trying to drive on roads like these is kind of like trying to stick a bean all the way up your nose and swallow it - it's possible but it might get stuck. So I decided not to drive anywhere this weekend to be safe. Instead I took a walk around my neighborhood wearing my practical - yet fashionable- hat to take a few pictures of the craziness to show you what a Canadian winter can be like:

Our backyard

Look closely. Yes, there's a CAR under that blanket of snow! Not mine, thank goodness.

Icicles hanging from the side of our house. 

More snow is yet to come. This is just the beginning. I'm off to sip some hot chocolate and warm up my toes!

Review: Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub

During the wintertime my lips get extremely dry and icky. I live in a very dry climate to begin with so when the cold weather hits my chapped lips start crying for moisture. (So does my boyfriend who tells me I need to use Chapstick after I kiss him!) Every day I use either Burt's Bee's Lip Balm or Kiehl's #1 which helps to moisturize and protect them from external exposure but I wanted to try an exfoliator to help get rid of the dead skin on my pout. Since I heard so many rave reviews about LUSH's Bubblegum Lip Scrub I had to try it for myself. So I picked it up at LUSH for $8.95 CDN after work on Friday. I LOVE it! This delicious scrub made of refined castor sugar and jojoba oil smells so good I was actually tempted to eat it! But I didn't ; ).

Here are some swatches. The first pic is before I used the scrub, the second is after and the third is with lip liner and lipstick on. You can see how soft and nourished my lips look in the second photo, with all the dead skin cells gone.

For those of you who are wondering what kind of lipstick I used it's my new favorite shade from Rimmel called Airy Fairy. It's so creamy and stays put for hours. I paired it with Rimmel's 1000 Kisses Lip Liner in 049 Natural which is a pretty nude color, it's the bottom swatch.

Have any of you tried LUSH'S Bubblegum Lip Scrub?

Leftover Holiday Pictures

My best friends Jenessa and Kristin

My mom made those butter tarts. They're my absolute favorite Christmas treat!

Our cat, Prints Whiskerson Sultenfuss The First aka "Kitty." She's nice when she sleeps!

My  nephew and D. playing with his new train set on Christmas Eve.

Winston, D.'s sister's pug

My Aunt and Uncle's huge Christmas tree at their cabin

Is anyone else in denial about the holidays being over??? I find January is kind of a let down because not only is the excitement of Christmas gone, we have a few more months left of short days and extremely cold weather which makes me seriously contemplate hibernating until Spring. Oh well, on the bright side it's a new year, I have new goals and a new winter coat to keep me warm ; ). I bid adieu to the holiday season by putting away our Christmas decorations while weeping and posting these pics. I hope you have a great weekend!
